据普氏能源资讯11月26日迪拜报道称，科威特国有新闻社KUNA周日表示，科威特国家石油公司（KNPC）在其2040年战略计划的一部分中纳入了两项与天然气相关的研究。
其中一项研究的目标是，到2025年，将制造用天然气产量提高到每天37亿立方米，另一项研究是建造两条新的天然气管道。
科威特可以从石油生产中获得相关天然气，并从Mina al-Ahmadi的一个终端进口液化天然气。该国一直计划在al-Zour建造第二个液化天然气进口终端，预计这个产量在1100万吨/年的终端将于2021年投入运营。
这些研究是KNPC支出计划的一部分，该计划旨在到2035年将该国的炼油能力从目前的140万桶/日提高到200万桶/日。
科威特一直在扩大其al-Zour炼油厂项目。一旦第一阶段完成，预计到2025年炼油产能将达到170万桶/日。第二阶段将增加产能至200万桶/天，预计到2035年完工。
